baby it's cold outside

I'm cold.

Can you believe this, I have no heat. I'm not making this streak of bad luck up, I seriously have no heat now. On my second day of no heat in my house.
Apparently the lack of hot water was my clue that the central heating was on it's last leg. Who'da guessed? Obviously not me.

On another note: Base Housing called and gave me a butt-chewing for paying my February rent. "Now that you paid February, there's no way you'll see your deposit again-- you were supposed to release the deposit to pay Feb's rent because that was the only way you were going to get your deposit back...".
Funny, THAT would've been good information to pass on at the same time you were telling me not to pay the rent-going against every moral fiber in my body. I would've understood it in those terms.
She's pretty fed up with me and was quite agreeable that my next option might be to move back to the states.

Still, I have more important things to think about.

Like how I am cold and that makes for difficult typing. Yesterday I was told the heating guy (who happens to be the guy who turned off my broken hot water tap in the kitchen ten days ago never to return) is supposed to be here "Either tonight or first thing tomorrow". Did you see on the news our record snowfall? That closed schools and crippled airports? That white stuff is cold. We could sleep next to the aga I guess.

I'm rambling. Cold does that to a brain. Two more days until the court hearing. I'm three days away from the end of an incredible amount of stress, or three days closer to being homeless. Two days for my whinging posts to find another subject.

Addendum: Central Heating guy was here (it's morning now-- didn't feel like eight hours since you started reading, did it?). He put a new program box up, but now I have to wait for the certified electrician to come wire it in. I may have heat by tonight. Who HOO!!

The things people take for granted...
What are you enjoying today that you would miss terribly if it were gone?
